Hi
Please some advice again I have a "71" Bug.

I can get my grubby little hans on a set of used pop out rear windows with all the fittings for R200-00 a piece.

The supplier

does not know from witch model Bug it comes.

My questions are:
1 Will they fit my bug?
2 Is it a difficult conversion?
3 Is it a fear Pric? Me think it is
Thanks

Take them, remember to get the hinge as well as the black U shaped channel that fits on the inside of the body and all the flush mount screws. We never got popouts on the pre 67 beetles so it will fit your 70's beetle no problem. You will need to drill for the hinge, the locking/closing fitting mounts to the body will have the place to fit. If the rubbers around the chrome are shot I can get you a new set.

R200 PER SIDE SOUNDS A BIT HARSH.I SOLD BOTH SIDES WITH ALL FITTINGS AND SCREWS FOR LESS THAN R200,but then again i was helping a fellow member out and not trying to make money out of it .

Yes, I missread, R200 for the set is about right R400 for the set is too much.
